Clocks

Solar Clock

No batteries? Yes please.

Like its friend the Sun Jar, this handy solar powered clock is handsome as it is practical and eco-friendly. With a smart and simple solar panel on its front it’s a far cry from the days of those dodgy calculators you had to crouch under a bright light to use. But as well as being functional this little clock has a clean and unfussy design that lets you stand it up whichever way you want. To boot, its solar power means that you’ll never be caught in the twilight zone wondering what the time really is after a night-time power cut.

Adrian Allen
Supplied with two sets of hands (long & short) to give you the options of wall mounted or free standing.

E 8 Clock

What time is it? 4:20? No, silly, it’s actually 1:11pm…maybe. Though this has to be a little bit confusing to read at first, it looks super minimalist and high tech. Do you need that in a clock? Maybe.

Based on a simple, but effective block system arranged in four columns, with each block representing a single unit within its respective hour (split into two columns), minute and seconds columns its arguable that, whilst this device may seem initially to be a rather over-complicated means ascertaining the time, it is arguably rather easier to read than its traditional analogue counterpart. –nexus404

Solar System Wall Clock

While some of you might firmly put this clock into the ‘for-science-type-kids’ folder, I think it could work in a less-serious/non-stuffy modern interior…so anyways, here’s the main question, if this other clock is the same one, then why the big price difference? The hands look a tiny bit different, and the ‘brushed silver’ frame of course, but as far as the face and size it’s the same. (Can you tell I get annoyed when there are price discrepancies?)

Debate the classification of planets while being punctual…The black face is silk screened with planetary bodies and their orbits, all centered around the sun.
